Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the conviction under Section 307 IPC for attempted murder was justified as the accused had conspired to kill the informant, supported by witness testimonies. The Court emphasized that the absence of sanction under the Explosive Substances Act did not invalidate the conviction under IPC. The appeal was allowed, overturning the High Court's acquittal of the accused under the Explosive Substances Act, while upholding the conviction under Section 307 IPC.
